Invest your time with purpose.

Almost 3.3 million people of all ages volunteered their time, talents, and resources to assist The Salvation Army’s work. Our volunteers are critical partners in helping us fulfill our promise to America of “Doing the Most Good.”

The name, introduced in 1878 by founder William Booth, was adapted to describe the emerging organization as a “volunteer army.” See below for a complete list of volunteer opportunities at The Salvation Army.
